An analyst pointed to signs that President Donald Trump will never leave the White House, admitting, "I know this sounds crazy."
Strategist Julie Roginsky tells MSNBC anchor Chris Jansing on Monday that Trump's response that he's not ruling out a third term — which is unconstitutional — and that he "would love to do it" signals he will not leave office.
"Nobody's going to succeedhim. He's going to succeedhimself. Let's just bereal," Roginsky said.
"He's not building thatballroom because he's planningon leaving. He's not goinganywhere, and nobody's going toget him out of there," she added. "And bythe way, the Supreme Court saysyou can't run again. He willjust ignore the courts. And I'mhappy to see Marco Rubiowithout Steve Witkoff as our Secretary of State. So I'mhappy to see that he's appearedand popped up somewhere, buthe's not going to be thenominee. JD Vance is not goingto be the nominee because Donald Trump is not goinganywhere. And I understand thatsounds crazy and wacko, butthink about all the other crazy,wacko things that thispresident has done that wecould not believe he'd ever do.And you see why he's going torun again in 2028. And he's notgoing anywhere unless, you knowthe ravages of time take himaway. He's not leaving that White House."
The 22nd Amendment says that no person can be elected to the presidency more than twice. That includes the vice president, as both the president and the vice president are elected to office.
